Sure hope Seizmik is working on mirrors for these. I’ve already broken my driver side mirror twice. My brother broke his passenger side mirror and bought a new set so I was able to use the other one the first time. Second time I had to buy another set. It’s ridiculous to have to pay $200 for a small piece of glass.
The first time a small rock off the tires cracked it and the second time I hit a fence post that was leaning way out into the trail while going pretty fast. Neither time damaged the housing, just cracked the glass. But Polaris doesn’t sell just replacement glass or even single side mirror assemblies so you have to buy a whole new set. Also, on the second time, the mirror wouldn’t have broken if the back had been harder. The post hit the back of the mirror and flipped it in but still shattered the glass.

What holds the glass in? A glass shop could cut you one to fit
Pretty much just the bezel. It’s extremely thin glass and slightly convex.

Great looking ride. I haven’t put my mirrors on yet. Good thing to think about when riding the trails

I have heard that some have installed Seizmik Pursuit side mirrors directly to the doors on the Expedition Northstar. If so does anyone have any pictures they are willing to share. thanks
I would recommend the oem mirrors. Factory fit for machine,
are of good quality, and maybe a 20 minute install. Not sure why someone would go another direction unless they were wanting a lighted mirror.
Having broken 2 mirrors already, thus having to purchase 2 full sets of them from Polaris simply because I needed the glass part, I’d be more than happy to buy Seizmik for the replaceable glass and lifetime warranty.
I’d prefer not to have a weird mount situation but if I break one more, I’ll be done with the oem ones.

I currently have a set of Seizmik's on a Polaris General and they are very nice. Just not sure I want to start drilling holes in an Expedition to see how they work. LOL
I had them on my General too and really liked them. But they had a mount that looked clean.
On the Xpedition you’d currently have to use the cab tube mount, which would put them a little high or come up with another mount solution. Hopefully Seizmik is working on something clean.

JT, Do you know of solutions that involve just replacing the mirror itself in the Polaris side mirrors. I too keep breaking the side mirrors and replacing with the spendy two complete side mirrors ...complete with mounting base?
Other than Sector Seven for the Northstars (which are quite expensive) I haven’t seen a reasonable mirror solution for the Xpedition that doesn’t require buying a new set, just for a broken glass.
There are lower price options through Kemimoto and others on Amazon, which are identical to the Polaris mirror sets.
Someone on here did say they mounted Seizmic mirrors to the OEM A-Pillar Plastic, with a fender washer on the back for support. I could see that working, though if it gets hit hard enough it could tear the plastic panel off. The benefit would be considerably less expense to just replace the mirror glass.
I’m leaning towards this route next time I break a mirror.
